"frogdreaming,"

Nice straw man argument. I didn't say I was buying shares directly from DNAPrint Genomics. I am not ignornant of how Market Makers work.

DNAPrint Genomics can sell shares. Of course, there is a Market Maker involved. That is no surprise. When I buy shares, and they turn out to be the same shares that DNAPrint Genomics just sold, it is reasonable to say that I bought shares from DNAPrint Genomics. Computerized networks and software (including Market Makers) are present, making the transaction not "direct" in a strict sense, but the transaction does, nonetheless, occur. Also note, the Market Maker often (but not always) matches buy and sell orders at the same price... someone sells at .0004, I get shares at .0004. Not always, but often. I've bought many millions of shares, in this way.

You still have not substantiated anything in that message, that I challenged you to substantiate. I made no indication that it was a "joke," contrary to your previous insinuation. It is not a joke. You make a claim, you provide evidence to back that claim. And may I suggest, you do some research on how Market Makers actually function.
